GENERAL HOSPITAL, KYU-LAWN

MONUNG CHECKPOINT

Xing.

The chief engineer really wanted to know

what happened to you during the time he was gone.

So I told him everything I knew.

If this has caused you trouble,

I'm really sorry.

Guo Limin.

Tell me.

In the last six months,

have I changed?

People change.

Let's not talk about you.

I think I've changed as well.

When my uncle and I were trapped at the logging camp,

I got to know a man.

He was a very good person.

He was very good to me and my uncle.

Perhaps this was the very reason

that he got killed.

His body was hung outside on a tree by the shed.

I knew it was him when I saw him.

I looked at him

and he seemed to look back at me.

I knew who had done it.

I wanted to dismember the murderer piece by piece.

But I looked incredibly calm.

I wanted to cry,

but not a single tear was shed.

It was so strange.

It seems my uncle was right.

I have changed.

Whatever.

People will only become closer to their true selves as time goes by.

The Trilateral Slopes is indeed chaotic

and really dangerous.

But the more dangerous it is, the more opportunities there are.

I like this place.

Last Wednesday,

a waiter in our casino died.

His body was left at the entrance to our changing room.

Then the casino gave that family almost 80,000 in RMB.

Eighty thousand yuan?

That's a lot.

Xing.

Whether it is because of your uncle or not,

I think it's good for you to stay in the Trilateral Slopes.

I mean it.

You are lucky to be around Mr. Cai.

Mr. Cai.

Mr. Cai.

-Mr. Cai. -Come here.

Come, have a seat.

How is your uncle recovering?

Pretty well.

Are you going back to China?

That's good.

The medical equipment in your country is more advanced and more mature.

Your uncle will recover faster when he gets back.

Yes.

But

I still owe you money.

That's right, you still owe me money.

The Pigeon Blood Gem and that tapir

are worth a lot.

Do you know exactly how much they are worth?

You helped me with these two.

If we're settling accounts, I should be the one owing you.

I owe you quite a lot if you put it that way.

What is it, Haishan?

Mr. Cai, President Chen has finally had the time.

He set up a banquet for Wednesday night to entertain Mr. Aiso.

Aiso has gone back to Mongnawng.

Well…

Why didn't you tell me earlier?

Aiso said I would be the one who is fully in charge.

Let me know when and where later.

Mr. Cai.

Are you really going on behalf of Aiso to negotiate with them over dinner?

Isn't it unnecessary?

You can go on my behalf, okay?

I'd like to have someone go on my behalf so I can have some leisure time.

Aiso.

He found out that I use that route to smuggle other goods,

including bootleg liquor.

You can't always do things willfully.

Thoughts about praising Buddha never stop.

Never get tired when practicing via your actions, language, and mind.

Have you ever heard this saying? Do you know what it means?

What did you come here for in the first place?

To find your uncle, right?

Now you have found your uncle. You got what you wanted, right?

Then it's time to go back.

Because of this, I…

I've discovered you have a very admirable trait.

Once you set a goal, you must achieve it.

No matter how difficult it is, you always forge ahead bravely.

This is precisely the unity of your desire and action.

Thoughts about praising Buddha never stop.

Never get tired when practicing via your actions, language, and mind.

Let me, Tuo.

Give it to me.

-Need a hand? I will get the suitcase. -No.

Eggs.

In case you are hungry on the road.

Thank you, Tuo.

Don't worry. Within three months,

I will surely raise the money.

Mr. Cai didn't set a deadline.

The money Shen Xing made from supplying water

has already been settled.

We keep your engineering contract and business license.

It's just procedure. Mr. Cai trusts Shen Xing fully.

As for the rest of the money, no need to rush.

Pay it back when you have it.

Let's go.

You will definitely

come back again, right?

-Why? -It surely is safer to come back.

To get those documents, rather than to have them mailed to you.

You don't want me to leave, right?

Yes.

I will miss you, you silly boy.

You chicken.

Alright, this is it.

Tonight, I have to pick up Mr. Cai. He's having dinner with President Chen.

-Okay. -Thank you.

Thank you for coming all this way to see us off.

Take care and recover soon, sir.

Let's go.

Goodbye then, Xing.

Goodbye, Tuo.

Hello, Haishan. What's going on? Where are you?

Mr. Cai, I'm sorry.

Something came up. I can't make it tonight.

Then let's reschedule for another day.

No, Mr. Cai.

You can call me anytime if anything comes up.

President Chen rarely has time.

Mr. Cai, Shen Xing is on the way to China.

You can go in now.

I'll go in with Scrag.

You two stay here. Don't miss any calls.

What's going on?

Wu Haishan is not coming.

Mr. Cai, welcome!

This way, please.

ELEPHANT AND DRAGON INTERNATIONAL RESORT

No customers here today?

-Mr. Mao doesn't want to be disturbed. -Isn't President Chen the host?

Something came up.

I will keep you company today.

Mr. Cai from To-pan.

Please.

Cleaver.

Has your father's rubber forest been tapped for leaves?

Yes, the trees are very lush this year.

Take a vacation in September or October.

To go back and help your dad tap rubber.

Okay, Tuo.

Has Xing really left?

Why?

Just asking. He is a good man anyway.

Didn't he find a tapir?

It's a pity he left.

Mind your own business.

He's going back to his own country.

China.

The real pity is not to go back.

Don't miss any calls.

I'll take a quick nap.

Okay.

Let's skip the back-and-forth.

Get to the point then.

Give me the route to transport the timber.

A win-win situation.

The road isn't mine. It's no use even if I agree with you.

Stop lying. Hasn't Aiso given you full authority?

Bring him over.

Once on the forest farm and once in the hospital.

You attacked me twice.

I've put up with it for business.

You forced me to do this.

Are you sure you want to go this far?

I should be the one

who asks you that.

Are you sure you want to go this far?

Wait.

This man is one of my men indeed.

He's not important to me. But let me tell you, pretty boy.

This is not how you do business.

If you kill him, how can we do business?

It's not your place to teach me how to do business.

Okay.

Stop.

-Get him up. -Okay.

Speak. What do you want?

As my uncle said.

-Two percent. -Two percent?

-Okay, release him. -Release him?

Do you think I'm stupid?

Take the contract to Mongnawng.

I will release him once Aiso signs it.

Aiso

won't sign it.

-Four percent. -What, four?

Four percent. Aiso's bottom line.

I don't care what terms he's set.

Just like my uncle said. Two percent.

Handle him.

End of discussion.

Continue.

Do you think you can leave here?

Four percent.

Two percent.

Four percent. Let him go!

-Two percent. -Four percent.

Two percent.

Uncle.

-Uncle. -You stupid boy.

What have you done?

-Chen Hao. -Mom!

Chen Hao. Stop beating him!

Enough!

Those people bullied him. Can't he retaliate?

Besides, he did it for you!

Have you forgotten what these rascals are capable of?

Have you forgotten how Pan's dad died?

People call you President now and treat you like a decent man,

so you've already forgotten who you are?

Shut up.

You said it yourself.

It wasn't easy for us to get to where we are today.

We are no different from those people if we play dirty.

Not only did you spoil him, you lied to me with him.

Look at this stupid and ruthless boy.

Is it what you want to see?

Or what your late husband wanted to see?

Don't mention him!

Cry.

All you know is how to cry when something happens.

Tell me.

I left the NBM Fund to you quite some time ago.

It was sent back for re-audit many times.

Sort out your own mess first.

Stop making a fuss here.

And you.

Wretch!

Mr. Cai.

-Dan Tuo. -You rat!

-How dare you come here? -Bro.

Take a look yourself. Look what you've done to Tuo.

Bro. Calm down. Let me have a word with Mr. Cai, okay?

You can beat me after that.

I have to talk with him.

Stop.

Mr. Cai.

What happened really has nothing to do with me.

Mao Pan used me. He lied to me, Mr. Cai.

How could I possibly hurt you? Mr. Cai, think about it.

Mr. Cai, here is what happened.

I was on my way back to Mokok.

Shen Xing called me

and said you were in danger at that International Resort.

He asked me to notify President Chen immediately.

That's when I knew what happened.

Mr. Cai, think about it. If I wanted to hurt you,

would I have called President Chen to have him save you?

Right?

I am not lying, Mr. Cai.

I only found out after Shen Xing called me.

Shen Xing called you?

If you don't believe me, call Shen Xing over.

You'll understand once you ask him.

I mean it, Mr. Cai.

Shen Xing has gone back to China.

Careful, Uncle.

There's a problem with the passport. He can't pass for now.

Why are you here?

I'm sorry. Your passport has a problem.

Go back. Your passport has a problem.

You can't pass.

Go back.

What's going on?

You can't leave.

What's wrong?

I checked Xing's records in the Trilateral Slopes.

He was once wanted.

And he was also sued for unpaid debts. The complainant was Bazi.

In short, without these charges dropped, you can't leave the country.

I have already repaid that money. Mr. Cai helped me repay it.

And it was ages ago. The case can surely be dropped now.

No one has cleared the court's charges for you.

Then what should we do?

The flight will take off soon.

Just follow the procedure.

First have Bazi withdraw your charges.

-How long will it take? -That's hard to say.

I have already passed. What now, if he can't leave?

Shen, don't worry. Do as I say, go back to China first.

Medical conditions are good in China.

You should hurry back to get your foot treated.

Shen Xing will stay here.

He will work here until the charges are dropped.

Go away. You can't linger here.

Step back.

-What on earth is going on? -I don't know either, Uncle.

Hurry up, move on.

Uncle. You go back and get your leg treated.

I will transfer the money to you.

I don't want your money.

-Why? -Keep it for yourself.

If you do ill, don't ever come to see me.

Shen Xing, remember what I said.

Don't trust anyone. Come back to me as soon as you can!

-How is it? -The luggage has been sent through.

Ma picked up your uncle.

Don't worry. Your uncle is completely out of trouble now.

Alright.

He was just worried about you. He didn't mean what he said.

I know. I understand my uncle better than you.

He is sharp-tongued but soft-hearted.

It's been hard on you too.

So when do we go to drop the case tomorrow?

I will let Dan Tuo know and have him pick us up.

Don't be so anxious.

My uncle has gone back.

How can I not be anxious?

Haven't I said it before?

Do you think people are efficient here?

Anyway, I will keep a close eye on it. Just rest assured.

-Want to eat? -No, thanks.

Before I came here,

I was handling matters at the Hygiene Department in Kyu-pon.

I saw President Chen of Elephant and Dragon Chamber of Commerce.

He seemed to be speaking with a sheriff from Bomo,

asking for a secret passage within his jurisdiction.

Does Mr. Cai also transport goods on this secret passage?

Right.

You just mentioned President Chen.

-Where did you see him? -Kyu-pon.

That's not right. He should be in Kyu-lawn now.

Tonight he has to entertain officials from the Hygiene Department.

He should be in Kyu-pon. Not Kyu-lawn.

-This is bad. -What's up?

The subscriber you have dialed is currently…

Hello? Are you Mr. Wu?

All the hospital expenses

will be billed to the Elephant and Dragon International Resort.

Understood.

Mr. Cai.

Sorry about this.

Mr. Cai.

Can we have a word?

President Chen.

I'm just a middleman.

Whether you can sell the lumber

or whether Aiso can get the commission for selling the road

is none of my business.

But my people got involved

and even got injured for no reason.

I know perhaps you look down upon To-pan.

But the route you want to borrow belongs to Mongnawng.

Aiso has his own rules.

CLOSE THE DOOR WITH LIGHT HAND

Mr. Cai.

I am responsible for what happened tonight.

-I've already disciplined Mao Pan. -President Chen.

I am entrusted by Aiso, so I have to do things by his rules.

Personally, I don't need anything.

Four percent is too much.

How about this?

Tomorrow I'll go to Mongnawng myself.

-I'll talk to Aiso face to face. -President Chen.

It's already not the right time now.

This was very simple in the first place.

Once Aiso accepts the Pigeon Blood Gem, this is settled.

I respect you a lot personally.

But Mao Pan is your nephew.

We are talking about business.

We can't hold so many personal grudges.

-As, how can we discuss business then? -Yeah.

President Chen, as a businessman, your main goal is to make money.

But President Chen, you are not here to build factories.

You are here to log woods.

There are vast forests in the Trilateral Slopes.

That's right.

We don't mind sharing the abundant resources.

But trees can't grow fast enough to keep up with the swing of the axe.

Right?

The people of Mongnawng have a feeling for this.

You do business with them and let them make money,

but you can't deprive them of their feelings about this.

Mr. Cai, do you mean

there is no leeway at all?

That's not what I mean.

What Aiso wants is you take 60%, he takes 40%.

There's no other way.

He also said doing business is a long-term thing.

If you don't find it acceptable…

-I wish you good luck. -I wish you good luck!

Mr. Cai, the dishes are ready.

Too many dishes. Share them with the others.

Thanks, Mr. Cai.

Mr. Cai. We gained nothing but suffered a lot this time.

It's so unfair.

Do not talk while you eat.

Do not talk while you eat.

I don't understand.

I just want to say,

Tuo was heavily injured.

The hospital hasn't told us whether he can be discharged next week.

Then make a call and find out.

All right.

Take this away. Take everything away.

Take everything away.

Mr. Cai.

Tuo will be discharged next Wednesday.

You go pick him up then.

Mr. Cai, I will go.

It's all the same whoever goes.

Why did you come back?

He just said

he wanted to come back and continue to supply water.

How about your uncle?

He has returned home safely.

I have a new idea.

What are you thinking?

Keep supplying water to pay back everything I owe you.

-End everything well. -Have you thought it through?

Thoughts about praising Buddha never stop.

Never get tired when practicing via your actions, language, and mind.

This is what you taught me.

Pretty good. Scrag, open this.

Sit.

I have a question for you.

Wu Haishan said you called to warn him that I was in danger.

Yes.

When I was going through customs, I ran into Officer Jue Xintun.

He told me that he saw President Chen at the Hygiene Department in Kyu-pon.

But I remember Tuo telling me

that you and President Chen were going to dine in Kyu-lawn.

So I figured something must be wrong.

That Mao Pan must be the culprit.

It was Mao Pan who harmed my uncle's leg.

He is very vengeful and very dangerous.

I also told Tuo that it is best for us to keep a distance from him,

in case he causes any trouble.

Right.

Alright, your uncle has also gone back safely.

You can supply water with peace of mind from now on.

After that, do whatever you want to do.

Since you've decided to stay,

then stay.

This time for real?

Of course.

Almost finished?

Mr. Cai.

Mr. Wu. This new wooden table is really beautiful.

It isn't made from Zhou Bin's logging camp, right?

It's possible that you cut the wood that made this table yourself.

That makes it even more valuable.

Shen Xing. Here.

This is for you.

This is…

THE DUKE OF ZHOU INTERPRETS DREAMS

Take it.

The deal is settled all because of To-pan.

So I've prepared a little something for you guys.

Mr. Cai.

There's another piece of good news.

Through our recent interactions,

President Chen is completely aware of your capability.

So he specifically had me come here

to invite you to the Elephant and Dragon International Resort.

What, another trap?

Dan Tuo hasn't woken up yet.

Mr. Cai, President Chen said so himself.

-And I will be there with you. -Shut up.

What place is this?

A Buddhist hall.

Let's go outside and talk then.

Mr. Cai, you are a really good actor.

You really startled me just now.

Hurry back. We'll eat together.

Mr. Cai.

I wish you good luck.

If we can't make it, we'll just eat outside.

Get things done and get over here.

Alright, I will.

You can't be discharged yet.

I'm fine now.

Tuo.

I came to pick you up.

Surprise.

What's going on?

-Why did you come back? -What?

You don't want me here? Then I'll have Scrag pick you up.

Stop pretending.

I've been discharged, and you're still bringing fruit.

I didn't buy this for you.

Uncle.

Why are you so silly?

-Stop making fun of me. -Shen Xing.

Didn't you go back to China with your uncle?

I didn't.

Perfect. I heard you stayed here to take care of Xituang.

So I bought some food.

No, thanks.

Why?

It's been many days, and he hasn't woken up.

That expensive?

What are you doing?

Tuo.

-Are you alright? -Couldn't be better.

Mr. Cai told me to bring the food to you.

It will take probably a couple of hours. I'll go in first.

That expensive?

-Come and see. -Come on.

I really didn't know that you would come back.

Your uncle compromised after all.

Not really.

How did the two of them get in?

Mr. Mao.

Who let them in?

The president invited them.

He invited that old man.

He didn't say that his dogs could come through this door.

-Mr. Mao, you are drunk. -Get lost.

Playing deaf here, huh?

I'm talking to you. Can't you hear me?

Calm down, bro. He's drunk. He's drunk.

Scared now?

Come on.

I'll take you guys swimming.

Don't.

-Let's go. -Stop!

He is drunk. Please forgive him.

-Mr. Mao. -What are you looking at?

-No. -What are you looking at?

Mr. Mao.

They're about to finish.

The banquet is about to be over. What will you do if he sees this?

Sorry, bro, it's all a misunderstanding.

Let's go,

Mr. Mao, just sit down.

Sit down.

Look.

It's right that your uncle was worried about you.

You're so smart. You must know that's just how it is here.

I can treat people like this.

People can treat me the same way.

This can happen to anyone.

I'm very happy that you came back.

But I still want you to ask yourself, in the Trilateral Slopes,

whether you should or could endure this.

Tuo.

Be honest with me.

Do you all think that I'm here just for the money?

I'm here because the charges haven't been dropped yet.

And also because of you all.

I don't want to leave you guys.

Oh.

Ming is here!

Long time no see.

Come on, be careful. This way.

Hao!

Pan is familiar with the business of Zhou Bin.

Now the logging camp is back, and the sales channels are open.

Can you let him go back since he's one of our own?

He can help you in any way.

Sister.

Just mind your own business.

But

we still have to find a job for your nephew.

How?

After all that has happened,

you will offend whoever you want to be his boss.

This is not just about finding a job.

It's a matter of education.

You…

If you really can't persuade him to come back here,

just let him be for a while, so he can learn his lesson.

Don't be so anxious.

How about this?

Tell me about that fund thing.

NBM.

The medical sector of the Bomo Development Fund

is indeed the fastest choice.

Registration is expected to be completed by next week.

Please have a seat.

Very good.

Shan.

Well.

Are you interested in private equity?

Of course.

However, I don't want to cause trouble for you and Ms. Chen.

He has helped a lot.

Sister.

Walk him through the procedure.

-Teach him everything he doesn't know. -Okay.
